Elephant Toothpaste By Song Shin 6EF, Kate Han 6CD

Introduction Have you ever seen elephant toothpaste? It is one of the experiments that explodes and looks like toothpaste. It is called elephant toothpaste because it looks like toothpaste and it can also explode like an elephant.

Materials 1. 1 clean bottle or box to put in the materials. 2. Cup to mix warm water and yeast 3. Warm water 4. Hydrogen peroxide 5. Liquid dish soap 6. Packet of dry yeast 7. food coloring (optional) 8. Table spoon (if you want to do perfectly) 9. Mixing bowl 10. tray( if you want to make it clean) I know there is a lot of material but still you have to have all of the ingredients if you want to make it. How do we make it? Elephant Tooth is simple to make and it is FUN!! Before you experiment! Let's prepare for the experiment. Make sure you have something to protect your table! (Something like a newspaper). Then, check if the materials (More info on the Material list) are all prepared, After that, get a clean, glass bowl (It doesn’t really matter if it isn’t a glass one). If you finish the steps above, you are all prepared! Now let's look at how to make it!!


Step 1 First, add some Hydrogen peroxide to your bowl! (Make sure you are careful while using this material! :p) After that, put a few droplets of dish soap in it. And if you want some colour in it, you can add some food coloring in it. Step 2 Secondly, prepare a small cup and a spoon. Add some yeast and a small amount of warm water in the bowl, and mix it. It doesn’t have to be perfectly mixed! Step 3 Lastly, pour the yeast-water mixture to the first mixture we made. Watch it explode!! Why does this situation happen? This is because of the hydrogen peroxide. The hydrogen peroxide is a chemical in elephant toothpaste. Fewer water molecules will contain the hydrogen peroxide and make the hydrogen peroxide(o) break down on its own then there is only H-O-H. But, then there will be a lot of hydrogen peroxide which is O. So the O combines them together and it floats and booms!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It exploded!!!!!!!!

World records! TOP 1 The world’s biggest elephant toothpaste is 275.91 m cubed by Manual do Mundo in december 5th 2019. TOP 2 The world's 2nd biggest elephant toothpaste by Nick Uhas and other people that helped Nick Uhas. The picture which is beside is from this experiment and in the video it says 245m cubed more but we are not 100 percent sure. 5 FUN FACTS ABOUT ELEPHANT TOOTHPASTE!! Elephant toothpaste is made out of clean material :) It's a very clean experiment! Elephant toothpaste is hot. It gets hotter depending on how much hydrogen peroxide you add It could explode very big as much you put the Hydrogen peroxide and liquid soap! Elephant toothpaste can be made into different shapes and colour Elephant toothpaste is cool !!


Frida Kahlo Annie Choi, year 5

One of Frida Kahlo’s self-portraits with her pets


Frida’s life Frida Kahlo was born in Coyoacán, Mexico City, Mexico, on July 6th, 1907. Her mother was Mexican and her father was German. When she was 6, she got a disease called Polio. The disease made her right leg much thinner than her left leg. To recover, she spent a lot of time playing sports with her father. She didn’t always want to be an artist. When she was 18, she had an extremely dangerous accident. She was on a bus ride with her friend, when a bus accident that almost took her life happened. An iron handrail impaled Frida’s hip and came out of the other side. This accident made her life hard and uneasy. After that accident she wasn’t able to move much. Then she started to paint self portraits of herself. She drew self portraits of her feelings and pain a lot.

Frida’s pets Frida had chickens, sparrows, macaws and parakeets, Bonito the parrot, a fawn (a baby deer) named Granizo, spider monkeys Fulang Chang and Caimito de Guayabal, the empirically-named eagle Gertrudis Caca Blanca, and several unusual, hairless dogs. Frida had about 8 types of pets. It is very surprising that Frida had that many pets. She had a great time with her pets everyday and the pets always made Frida happy.

Diego Rievera Frida Kahlo met Diego Rivera because she needed some advice from older painters. Soon, Diego and Frida got married even though Diego was 20 years older than Frida Kahlo. Diego was also a very talented artist. He is considered the greatest artist of the twentieth century.


History of hangul Annie Choi, year 5

Inventor of Hangul, King Sejong


The story of Hangul is very simple, but at the same time, very very complicated. It is considered to be one of the most scientific alphabets in the world and has received continuous praise from language experts for its great design and excellence. Hangul was created under King Sejong during the Chosun Dynasty (1393-1910). In 1446, the first Korean alphabet was proclaimed under its original name, Hun Min Jung Hum which literally meant "the correct sounds for the instruction of the people�. During his reign, King Sejong always deplored the fact that the common people couldn't read or write the chinese characters. He understood their frustration in not being able to communicate their thoughts and feelings in written words. This was the main reason why King Sejong decided to invent an easy alphabet to learn. Throughout history, Hangul has been at the root of the Korean culture, helping preserve our national identity and independence. So to conclude, I think that Hangul was very useful for the people who couldn’t read korean. And that is why Korean is picked to be one of the most scientific letters in the world. Also, I think it was very generous of King Sejong to endeavor to invent a new alphabet even when it put his eyesight at risk.


Genetic engineering & GMO Minjae Park 6H Aiden Lee 6G

Genetic Engineering What is Genetic Engineering? Genetic engineering is editing/changing DNA(DeoxyriboNucleic Acid). Also Genetic engineering is called Genetic modifying, Gene editing, genome engineering or genome editing . There are some reasons why we edit genes. It is because we can develop any organism’s gene to benefit us. However the not fair part about it is that it takes too much money, so only VERY rich people can do Genetic engineering. However, a technology called CRISPR reduces money and time for getting the results. CRISPR can fit into any cells, so it would be possible to genetically modify ANYTHING. Scientists have used the Genetic engineering on things like corn, tomato and even mice or cells. The scientists should be careful while testing something because there could be an unexpected result that can lead to failure of the lab. BT Crops: Pesticides treated crops have pesticide outside the crop so we can wash it off. However, BT crops have poison inside the crop so we can’t wash it off. Actually, it is no big deal. BT crops are crops that would kill the insects that eat the plant with its poison. But it would not kill us. That is because it will just flow down without getting digested during the digestive system. The poison that is harmful to the insect is harmless for us. DNA(DeoxyriboNucleic Acid):DNA is the blueprint of life. It has its own sequence and every living organism has it. It can self-replicate material which is present in nearly all living organisms as the main constituent of chromosomes. It is the carrier of genetic information. Needle: We use needles when we get a vaccination but it is also used for inserting genes. We need to be super careful when we do it. One mistake can spoil the whole lab. Gene Editing: Gene editing, also called genome editing or genome engineering, we delete, add, modify or replace a gene to modify a living organism for the better benefit of the animal and us. CRISPR(ClusteredRegularlyInterspacedShortPalindromicRepeats): CRISPR is still developing and scientists are currently making new versions of it and using it. It is programmable. It helps scientists who do a lab for making a new product save time and money. CRISPR can also detect cancer cells easily. This is because it can fit into any organism such as micro-organisms, plants, animalsC and humans. CRISPR, or even genetic engineering might help us end diseases, have eternal youth, or massive strength. What can Genetic Engineering do?


Genetic engineering can change what you look like and what you are good at. If you have black hair and you want blond hair, you can get a gene that causes hair to be blond from a guy that has blond hair, and insert it to you.There are already gene edited animals like super-muscled pig, fast growing salmon, featherless chicken and seethrough frog. Plus, there is a new technology called CRISPR(ClusteredRegularly InterspacedShortPalindromicRepe ats) and it helps us reduce time engineering and costs for engineering too. But, this technology is still developing too, so if it gets better, it could give us eternal youth and life, design babies(to edit unborn baby’s DNA for making a trait better. E.G:personality or physical traits for things like sports or studying) and end diseases too. Also later in future life, genetic engineering would be common so it could be free. CRISPR also helps to detect cancer cells so we could prevent cancer easily by taking one injection!! Lastly, it could prevent/end genetic diseases like colour blind, hemophilia and Huntington's disease which is caused by a single incorrect letter in your DNA. How can humanities get affected by Genetic Engineering? If a genetically engineered baby is born, we will not be able to stop more genetic engineered people being born so we should be careful about the decision if we should genetically engineer a baby. When Genetic engineering involves too much, people would be able to get Genetic engineered freely. This will lead to making the whole humanity population modified. We would have people who never die, people with powers like superman and people who are immune to every disease. It can cause overpopulation, but there are many other planets in the universe and if it is impossible for a normal human to live there, we can genetically engineer people to suit that place! So, it means even though it can cause problems on earth, it wouldn’t be too hard to solve the problem if we use genetic engineering. GMOs What are GMOs? Genetically modified organisms (GMOs) are living organisms whose genetic material has been artificially controlled in a laboratory through genetic engineering. This creates combinations of plant, animal, bacteria, and virus genes that do not take place in nature or through crossbreeding methods. It looks the same with other organisms, because its GENE is edited and modified, which we can’t see. Many people misunderstand that GMOs are genetically modified crops like corn, but GMOs are ORGANISMS that are modified so it can be an animal or a bacteria as well. Are GMOs safe? Nowadays, farmers use a thing called BT crops. BT crops are used when the farmers want to kill the insects that eat crops like grasshopper and crickets. Then the insect will die because of the poison. However, human beings would not die or get sick since we will just digest it. Poison is a question just about from different perspectives. Like how chocolate can affect dogs but not us.Therefore humans do not have to worry about being poisoned or harmed but the naughty insects would have to worry about eating the BT crops and killing them. I think almost all farmers will have GMOs in the future when it is more developed. Which food might contain GMO? Most packaged foods contain ingredients derived from corn, soy, canola, and sugar beet and the vast majority of those crops grown in North America are genetically modified. The Non-GMO Project also considers livestock, apiculture, and aquaculture products at high risk because genetically engineered ingredients are common in animal feed. This impacts animal products such as eggs, milk, meat, honey, and seafood. A Lot of GMOs sneak into food and make a lot of bugs that harm the crops. However, sometimes the sneaky GMOs make the farmers sick frequently too. However, scientists are trying to make the GMOs safer. That is how they made the BT crops to kill the bugs that harm crops.


American Black Bear Ellie Choi Year 5

American black bears are omnivores. Omnivores are animals that can eat plants and meat. They mostly eat berries, grass, acorn, beechnuts, fruit, pinecones, honey, roots, ants, fish, and insects. American black bears are the most common species of bears in the world. American black bears are the most friendliest bears in the world. Their fur is black but not always; it can also be light brown, red, blond, or grey blue. Black bears can live up to 30 years in the wild but mostly die at 20. They live in forests, mountains, and swamps. They are good at climbing trees. They can climb 100 feet in 30 seconds. Male black bears weigh 130-500 pounds and female black bears weigh 90-300pounds. They are 5-6 feet long. Black bears have short tails and a strong neck. Their ears are small and round. They also have curved claws. Bear cubs live with the adult bear for only about 2 years. American Black bears walk slowly but they can run very fast. American blcak bears have a total population of about 800,000. Black Bears are playful, joyful, smart, and fierce. Grizzly bears are 20 times dangerous than black bears. They are good swimmers. Cubs learn how to swim very easily and quickly. They can run up to 40-50ph. The 27 states of the United state are hunting 40,000 to 50,000 blackbears every year. If you see black bears, you need to stay still. If you run away, the bear will follow you. If you want to see black bears, you can find them at the Tongass National Forest, the Yellowstone National Park, Tofino, the Great Smoky Mountain National Park, and the Alligator River National Wild Refuge.


Unicorns By Lucy, Erin and Lisa Unicorns are mythical creatures that have a sharp single horn on the top of their forehead. What does the word unicorn mean? Uni means single, and corn means a cone with a sharp end. When you combine them, it becomes ‘a horse with a single horn’! DID YOU KNOW THAT… Unicorns have been caught on several cameras! Unicorn horns are actually narwhal teeth? In older times, people used to sell narwhal horns, telling people that the horns were unicorn horns. A baby unicorn is called a sparkle. If a wound is placed on a unicorn’s horn, it will heal. Unicorns sleep at 11 in the night and wake up at 11 in the morning. If you are a liar, the unicorns will pierce you through the heart. Marco Polo reported he'd seen very ugly unicorns but they were just rhinos. Unicorns are very magical; they have many different magical parts! Winged unicorns are called alicorns. The national animal of Scotland is the unicorn. Unicorns are very fast!!!!! If a unicorn mates with a pegasus, the baby will be a flying unicorn. Unicorns live in groups of 4 or 5. They can be any color, from black to silver. Queen Elizabeth was presented with a narwhal's horn in 1577. Unicorns are miraculous and mysterious. They live a very long life.


TYPES OF SLIME By. Erin Kim & Lisa Lee Clear slime You can say that clear slime is a BIT boring. It’s clear, just as its name tells us . It’s the classic slime: this slime is what made slime famous. CRUNCHY SLIME This slime crunches when you squeeze it. It is made for making your stress go away. So if you’re a person who gets lots of stress (like me), you should buy this one. EDIBLE BLOOD SLIME Seriously, we can eat this slime. WHOA. My cousin tried one before and she said it’s awesome. I don’t think it’s safe though. My parents say they are bad quality snacks. And that also means they are junk food. This type of slime may not be edible at all or might be very harmful.


Have you ever touched slime before? You love it right? They are stretchy and crunchy! Slimes come out in every colour: Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Purple, Pink, White and more! And also various kinds of sizes and styles: Crunchy, Clear, Putty, Cloud, Butter, Cheese, Fluffy, Unicorn, Cornstarch and tons more that I can’t count! Does homemade slime harm children? Yes, a lot of people got injured by making homemade slime. Their hands got basically burnt badly or somehow, some couldn’t get the slime out of their hands. And I think it’s seriously scary because my daddy says that if we burn our hands, we can’t even fix it. I think we should have a serious operation if we simply BURN OUR PRECIOUS HANDS IN SUCH A STUPID, DUMB, IDIOTIC WAY LIKE THAT. Sorry if I overreacted. It is also said that slime gives harm to children’s growth. WOW seriously? And I seriously agree that slime is NEVER a good thing for our bodies. My parents hate slime because they have always known slime is harmful to us. I think making slime home is an idiotic thing to do. And Erin, did you know that most slimes all contain harmful chemicals and all SO BAD FOR YOUR BODIES??? Well, you can’t see it, of course, but I saw in the JTBC 8 o’ clock news that a lot of harmful chemicals were found in kids' slimes. After watching that, I threw away all my mozzarella, marshmallow, christmas, halloween and pearl slimes. But I admit that I really miss my marshmallow slimes. But I KINDA THINK IT’S OK BECAUSE MY FRIENDS ALL TOUCH IT. And did you know that slime is plastic? The first and most important thing is that it has harmful chemicals in it! And there is also borax, which is really really bad for your body. It causes so much trouble in our bodies. However some parents ban slime from children! But I actually have to thank mommy because I found out how much mama cares for my health! It is known that pink slime is made by recycling MEAT. So I think you have to be careful of any slime thats’ near. My advice? Throw away all your slimes!!!


What is 4.3?-History of Jeju Chloris Kim

71 years ago, A big massacre occurred near the Jeju international airport. All the people’s dead bodies were buried there. How horrible, isn’t it? Almost 388 dead bodies were found there. Do you know about Jeong bang waterfall? It is a very pretty waterfall that falls into the sea. Above the waterfall,there are many trees. However, in the past, there wasn’t any. This is the background of the 4.3 incident. In this event, the korean army lined all the Jeju citizens up side of the waterfall and shot them all at once. They were all stuck together, with rope. Therefore, our people who are trying to kill can save bullets. How rude and sad!!! However, everyone doesn’t know this devastating history of the Jeong bang waterfall. This was another big event but it isn't that well known. It is the incident of the Jujeong factory. The Jujeong Factory is very bright and friendly now. However,in the past it was a prison for imprisoning the leader’s of 4.3 movement. The warehouse of the Jujeong Factory, turned into a very dark place. People were killed and tortured. The only memoir of this tragic incident is the . one post is saying 4.3. This horrible case started because in 1947, on the 1st of march, they were doing the 3.1 day celebration. But, a serious thing happened. 2:45 pm, the child has been kicked by a police’s horse. Police didn’t say sorry, so the citizens got infuriated at the police. They threw rocks but the police were too intimidating , so he went to the police station. The other policies think that citizens are attacking a police station, so they shut a gun. 6 people were killed and 6 were injured. Some people say it is not that important, and we don’t know so much about it. However, there are some people that remember that event. The person named ‘Sun oak Yang’ said “It was October 10. Police and soldiers come and take all the grass on the roof(the material of the roof in 1947 was grass and hay)and throw it on the ground. And the day starts to burn a fire. I am alive, but my dad and sister died… I can’t say anything while my dad died, and my sister got caught because I was so scared. I want to alice.” This incident was so horrible but it is very important to remember it.


Story About What Happened To José Salvador The man who survived 438 days alone at the sea

One day, Jose Salvador and his friend, Ezequiel Cordoba, wanted to go out to the pacific for a fishing trip. They had a small boat, which was about 7 meters long, and a radio that connected to their boss. They knew a strong storm was coming even before they went out into the ocean, but they didn’t want to miss their chance to visit the Pacific. So they decided to go just 120km into the ocean, but unfortunately, the storm hit them, and their engine got busted. The radio was still on there, but soon after, the radio went out of battery, and it lost connection with their boss. So there was nothing left on the deck, and only the two people, Jose and Ezequiel, were left on the boat. After 3 to 4 months, Ezquiel eventually starved to death. He had refused to eat the food because of the sickness it had given him. After that, Josewas the only one on the boat. One day, a cargo ship passed by them. He gave a signal towards the boat by waving his hands,

and 4 people on the deck saw him, but all 4 of them on the ship ignored him. And finally, after traveling 10,800km around the pacific for 438 days, he finally spotted land in the distance around the Marshall islands. He sailed towards the island, and he found out that the island was Tile Islet. The residents of the island, Emi and Russel, invited him into the island, and he was taken to the hospital to check his health state. Soon after, the U.S. Paid for Jose to fly back to El Salvador, and meet his family again. Jose Salvador’s friend This is a very sad, dejecting, and depressing story about what happened to Jose Salvador’s friend Ezequiel C o rdoba. So this is what happened to his friend… The friend gave up hope after about 3 ~ 4 months of isolation. He committed suicide by starvation, frustrated about getting sick by all of the raw food they were eating. Only Jose survived. After he was rescued, he promised to visit

Ezquiel’s mother. There is no doubt that Jose Salvador actually thought he could survive in a small boat in the middle of the ocean for 438 days. Nobody thought they could do that, and to his knowledge, he is the only person in recorded history who has actually done it. All of us, with some courage can do things we don't think we can. That doesn't mean we can do anything we desire to do, but we can do some things we are too intimidated to try, and for any number of reasons, aren't doing.


By. Lumi, Kate and Song Disney is a very famous animation company. Walt Disney founded the Disney company. Some of the famous animations include: Frozen, Snow white, Cinderella, Peter Pan, and others. Evolution of disney 3D movies The Frozen 2 storyline and the songs are all good, but the most noticeable part of Frozen 2 is the development of graphics. Producers claim that it took 130 hours to create a ‘2.5 second’ scene. Why did this take so long? This photo has been uploaded on instagram and it is a graph of the Frozen2 animation. Now, let’s look closer at the development of disney graphics. The first 3D animation created by Disney was called chicken little. Even though Disney had a late start on 3D movies- Chicken Little was released in 2005, while most other company’s 3D movies were released in 2001- the movie shows high quality images while also depicting Disney's superb animation at the same time. Subsequently Disney released a movie called “Bolt.” It was released in 2008, but there are noticeable differences with the previous animation. Even its same cat they separate texture between long and short hair, and they even succeeded in drawing the hardest four-legged animals. But there was work that raised the quality of Disney 3D animation and it is … Tangled!

Animation before Tangled was nice but this one is particularly different from other movies because it breaks the cliche. At that time almost every movie was about animals in a sordid city, so we could not really find details about people. However in Tangled they have bright and colorful feelings. So while watching the animation, it feels more magical.


Disney has a lot of princesses like Snow white or Cinderella . Snow white was created in 1937. Snow white was the first Disney princess and youngest, she was 14. Now in 2020 she is now 97, which makes her the oldest. Snow white was born in Germany, and she has black short hair. Also she has beautiful red lips. Next, In 1950 Cinderella appeared. Cinderella has strawberry blonde hair and she has sky blue eyes. She was born in france. When Cinderella was young she lost her parents. She married a prince. She was 19 in 1950 and now it is 89. Third is Aurora. Aurora also known as sleeping beauty was born in 1959 either in France or England. She was known for always sleeping in the forest. She has gold hair, purple eyes and a lip which is darker than rose. She was 16 in 1959 so now she is 77. Next is Belle. Then some will think like wait a minute I thought Cinderella was the first common princess. Cinderella was a Count family. She has big eyes and gold colour pink lips. She is very beautiful because Disney used a real model which was Audrey Hepburn. In 1991 she was 17 so now she is 46. Next is Jasmine . Jasmine is the only one who is not the main character. She has beautiful black hair and smoky eyeliner makeup. She has big brown eyes. In 1992 she was 15 so now she is 43. Next it is Pocahontas. Pocahontas is made of real Pocahontas’s story. She has long black hair with healthy skin. She was 18 in 1995 so now she is 43 so she is the same age as Jasmine. Next is Mullan. She pretended to be a man because of his dad. She was 16 in 1998 so now she is 37. Next is Tiana. She kissed the frog and turned into the frog. She is very tall and very thin with brown eyes. In 2009 she was 19 so now she is 30. Next is Rapunzel. She has power in her hair so she had never cut her hair before. So of course she has very long hair. In 2010 she was 18 so now she is 28. Now it's time to talk about Elsa. In 2013, which came


with a beautiful song ‘let it go’. She has white- gold hair and icy blue eyes.She became queen after her parents died. She can turn everything to ice with her hand. In 2013 it was 21 so now it is 27. Now it’s Anna. She is the younger sister of her sister Elsa . She has strawberry blonde hair with blue eyes and freckles. In 2013 she was 18 so now she is 24. Finally, the last princess in Moana. She is the daughter of Motunui Island’s king. Moana mean ocean in hawian. Moana has tan skin and she is very good at swimming. Also, she has brown eyes. In 2016 she was 16 but now she is 19 so she is the youngest princess at disney.


FUN FACTS! At frozen 1, and Frozen Fever, we can see a glimpse of Hans. Princess Mulan killed 1994 people in the movie (plus one main character), making her the princess who killed the most people. Cinderella’s shoe size is 4 and a half, which is almost half of the average size of a normal woman's foot (which is 7) In the movie “Brave” Merida’s hair was what the programmers worked on the hardest!

This article is about the band ‘Beatles’. The Beatles is a band that made history in music. This is an article about The Beatles. John, Paul, George, Ringo are the members of the Beatles. John is the lead vocalist, and he plays the ridom guitar. Paul is also a lead vocalist, and he plays the bass guitar. George is the lead guitarist, and the lead guitarist. Ringo plays the drum. John Lenon made the band in 1956. After BEatles disbanded, John Lenon started as a solo singer. He usually wrote lyrics to songs, and also did artwork. He died on the 8th of December, 1980, in New York by getting shot. Even after he died, the Beatles have been very famous. Paul McCartney does many things. For example, he is a singer, song writer, musitian. He also made a solo band with wings Linda and Denny Laine. Paul is still alive and is still a famous singer. He is one of the best songwriters. This is reasonable because he wrote 32 songs that reached billboard chart no.1. George Harrison is the lead vocalist and guitarist. George Harrison died at Paul McCarteny’s house with his wife and his son. Paul McCarteny’s IQ was 117 when he was 11years old. George Harrison's wife was Olivia Harrison, who is american author and film producer. Ringo is the member who plays the drums in the Beatles. He is also the main actor in beatles. Did you know that Ringo is not his real name? Ringo’s real name is Richard Starkey. Ringo is still alive, and he’s still very active. He has a son named Zak Starkey. Zak Starkey is an English drummer. John and Paul made almost all of the songs. Ringo is a silly song writer because he wrote the silly song yellow submarine. Andy White helped with the drum part while they were making the song Love ME DO. George Martin played the piano while they were making The Hard Day’s Night, and Penny Lane. Billy Preston helped play Oregon while they were making the songs Get Back and Let It Be. The most popular songs of the Beatles are Come Together, Something, a Day in the Life. I have given you some interesting information about the Beatles.

How Can A Ball Curve? Derrick, Sihu

There are many instances when a ball curves in a sports game. Isn’t a ball supposed to go in one direction when we throw a ball or kick it? Is this magic that people use or is there another reason why it turns? We have some reasons and scientific proof. Imagine seeing a banana kick of a famous football player in slow motion in the sky. The ball curves in the direction it is going. That is the key point of why a ball turns when you throw it or kick it. If you push something it would move and you would have applied force, of which newtons are the units. If you apply force on a ball it will move in one direction until some other force is applied. If you throw a ball straight it will not curve and fall by gravity stop. If you kick the middle or right side of the ball it will curve or turn to the right.
